OverviewThe DxU 810c Iris is a fully automated urine chemistry analyzer designed for high-capacity clinical laboratories. It supports continuous strip loading (1–300 test strips) and delivers rapid, repeatable chemistry results with integrated data management and network communication.
Key features- Continuous strip loading with a 1–300 test strip processing range and 300-strip load capacity for extended unattended operation
- High throughput: up to 210 samples per hour
- Rapid time to first result: under 2 minutes, subsequent results every 15 seconds
- Measures nine standard urine chemistries plus ascorbic acid; color compensation pad for highly pigmented samples
- Ascorbic acid pad to detect potential interference affecting blood, nitrite, bilirubin or glucose readings
- Optical measurements: color by absorbance, clarity by scattered light, specific gravity by refractometry
- Onboard iWare Data Management Software for validation and result verification; optional PROService, DxONE Command Central and REMISOL Advance integration
- Onboard storage for up to 10,000 patient results
Operational capabilities- Sample identification via barcode Auto‑ID or keyboard entry
- 10‑tube rack system with continuous feed; 60‑specimen walk‑away capability in standalone mode; scalable workcell configurations up to 200 samples
- Bidirectional communication interface supporting host queries and LIS connectivity
